Queen of Light took her bow, And then she turned to go,
|
The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom, And walked the night alone.
|
|
Oh, dance in the dark of night, Sing to the morning light.
|
The dark Lord rides in force tonight, And time will tell us all.
|
|
Oh, throw down your plow and hoe, Rest not to lock your homes.
|
|
Side by side we wait the might of the darkest of them all.
|
|
I hear the horses' thunder down in the valley blow,
|
I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon, waiting for the eastern glow.
|
|
The apples of the valley hold, The seeds of happiness,
|
The ground is rich from tender care, Repay, do not forget, no, no.
|
Dance in the dark of night, sing to the morning light.
|
|
The apples turn to brown and black, The tyrant's face is red.
|
|
Oh the war is common cry, Pick up you swords and fly.
|
The sky is filled with good and bad that mortals never know.
|
|
Oh, well, the night is long the beads of time pass slow,
|
Tired eyes on the sunrise, waiting for the eastern glow.
|
|
The pain of war cannot exceed the woe of aftermath,
|
The drums will shake the castle wall, the ring wraiths ride in black, Ride on.
|
|
Sing as you raise your bow, shoot straighter than before.
|
No comfort has the fire at night that lights the face so cold.
|
|
Oh dance in the dark of night, Sing to the morning light.
|
The magic runes are writ in gold to bring the balance back. Bring it back.
|
|
At last the sun is shining, The clouds of blue roll by,
|
With flames from the dragon of darkness, the sunlight blinds his eyes.
